The Lady Eagles ended their season last week with a much needed win over Frisco. But first the Liberty Lady Red Hawks came to town last Wednesday and blew open a close game in the fifth to go on to claim a 10-0 victory over the Lady Eagles. Liberty scored in first inning but the Lady Eagle pitching and defense shut down the Red Hawks the next three innings. Trailing 1-0 going into the fifth, Liberty scored 7 runs to break the game open and added two more runs in the seventh to claim the win. Leading hitters for Prosper were: Courtney Hardy 1 for 3, Brittany Anderson 1 for 3, and Haley Wilkerson 1 for 3. The Liberty pitching and defense put a clamp on the Lady Eagle offense allowing only eight baserunners.

Lady Eagles End Season with a big win over Frisco 6-1

The Lady Eagles traveled to Frisco last Friday night with a 0-13 district record but you could not tell it with their effort and intensity that the team displayed. Frisco who had already clinched second place in the district, faced a Lady Eagle team that came out determined from the get go. Prosper showed a new five man infield vs Frisco’s bunting game and it confused the Lady Raccoons for most of the game. Prosper’s pitching and defense held the high powered offense of Frisco to one run.

Prosper got on the scored board in the second inning as Kelsey Rolfe reached on an error and later scored on Jaycee Smalley’s RBI double. Hannah Smith was the courtesy runner for Rolfe. In the fourth, Prosper added another run as Rolfe singled, was bunted to second by Haley Wilkerson, and scored on Kahla Watkin’s single. In the sixth, Prosper broke the game open as Rolfe walked, Smalley singled, Watkins laid down a two-strike squeeze bunt, Tatum Moore followed with another squeeze bunt, Courtney Hardy had an rbi single to score Watkins, and Hardy scored on a throwing error at third to make the score 6-0. Frisco scored their only run in the sixth.
